EIR NYC Sunset Oil, $35
This is one calming body oil you'll want to keep on hand this summer (and all year round.) It contains an antioxidant-rich blend of herbs as well as coconut, jojoba, olive and sweet almond oils to heal and hydrate your sun-lovin' bod. What makes this one a bit different is the addition of aloe and arnica (a botanical that is super effective for reducing inflammation and redness as well as healing sunburns and other maladies). The oil itself is non-greasy and sinks right into skin, instantly alleviating that tight, dry feeling that results from a sunburn and we love the light, fresh, herbal scent.

This incredibly gentle, hydrating mist was originally intended for clients who had just received an intense peel or facial. It's full of soothing and hydrating (and deliciously scented) ingredients like cucumber, cantaloupe, aloe and rose that your skin will drink right up. Chamomile oil helps combat hyperpigmentation and sun damage, while witch hazel is an anti-inflammatory and aqua carpatica spring water helps to balance the skin's pH levels. Spritz it on after cleansing, use as a makeup setting spray or mist all over after a sunburn for some plump, hydrated and seriously soothed skin.

Add some much-needed moisture to dry (or sunburnt) skin with this calming gel mask. Apply a thin layer and relax for 10 to 20 minutes. It also contains hyaluronic acid to hydrate, smooth and plump fine lines plus red algae and aloe vera add moisture and promote healing. It's lightly scented, formulated with natural ingredients and is a great way to cool off on a hot day.

Chock-full of antioxidants and science-heavy ingredients, this serum heals skin and encourages cell turnover, which is great after skin treatments and sun exposure. Containing vitamin E, resveratrol and peptides, this serum works to fight free radicals and environmental damage (i.e. sun damage, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, etc.). Smooth it on in the morning and evening following a sunburn and watch it work its magic to ease the burn and prevent visible long-term damage.

If you want to go out in public without resembling a tomato, try this healing, color-correcting lotion and watch it neutralize the redness superfast. Like all of NIA 24's products, it's formulated with Pro-Niacin, which helps to strengthen the skin's barrier and promote cell turnover. Licorice root and horse chestnut help to reduce redness and inflammation and soothe the skin from environmental stressors. Vitamin E helps to condition skin and promote healing. The non-greasy, green lotion reduces redness due to skin sensitivity, skin procedures, extreme temperatures, even sunburn.
